Chapter 13 Grievance
After returning home, Jiang Fuyue asked Jingzhe to pick up some gifts from the small warehouse and sent them to the Duke of Jin's Mansion along with the gilded pearl Bu Yao.

Guyu, on the other hand, was busy storing the supplements he brought back from Duke Jin's Mansion into the small warehouse of Shaoguang Yuan. He also asked people to register them and make a register. He also didn't forget to send a copy to Mrs. Lin in the kitchen.

Afterwards, Guyu returned to the study.

"Madam, this is Madam Lin's newly made hibiscus and lotus seed cake. Please try it." Gu Yu put the tray in his hand on the table, turned around and saw that Jiang Fuyue had laid out the paper, so he didn't care about the cake. , hurriedly went over to polish the ink.

Jiang Fuyue went to get a mahogany box from the bookshelf, picked some colored inks from it, and put them on the table.

When Gu Yu saw this, he simply joined forces with both hands and tried both ways, while still talking: "Madam, go try that hibiscus and lotus seed cake. It won't taste good when it's cold!"

Seeing that she was so busy and had no time to care about whether it was crispy or not, Jiang Fuyue couldn't help but feel helpless, so she picked up a piece and tasted it.

The pastry is fragrant and crispy, with a sweet taste.

But Jiang Fuyue didn't like snacks, so she only took one bite and then put it down: "It tastes good, I think it will suit your appetite."

Gu Yu's eyes lit up, and the movements of his hands sped up a bit, and in a short time, all the colored inks picked out by Jiang Fuyue were polished.

When it comes to grinding ink, Gu Yu has quite a bit of a child's skill. Although her movements look urgent, the ink she grinds out is moderately light and smooth, with not even a particle visible.

Gu Yu quickly reinstalled the ink sticks, then went to the side to clean his hands, and happily embraced the plate of hibiscus and lotus seed cakes and started eating.

Jiang Fuyue looked at Gu Yu, who was engrossed in eating, and a smile appeared on her lips.

She walked back to the table and raised her brush to paint. The shape of the thousand-year-old lotus in the lotus lake today began to gradually appear on the paper. Gu Yu sat aside with a porcelain plate, quietly eating hibiscus and lotus seed cakes.

The afternoon sun shines in slantingly, making the room quiet.

Soon, Jiang Fuyue put down the last stroke, and the grand scene seen by the Lotus Lake today was finally perfectly presented on paper.

The lotus leaves are lifelike and charming, the lines are smooth and natural, and the colors are elegant and harmonious, which shows the superb skills of the painter.

Guyu came over with the seal in hand, with a face full of surprise: "Madam, you haven't painted for a long time, but I didn't expect that your painting is better than before!"

Ever since she married into the Hou family, Jiang Fuyue has been burdened with trivial matters. Even if she occasionally gets interested, she can only simply follow the shadow and draw a few strokes. It has been a long time since she painted by herself.

Jiang Fuyue smiled and said nothing, stamped the painting and said, "Go back and find a master to frame this painting properly."

"Yes!" Gu Yu nodded in agreement, but still didn't take his eyes away from the lotus picture.

Just at this time, Jingzhe, who had gone to Jin Guogong's mansion to deliver gifts, came back. After saluting, he saw that Gu Yu was fascinated by the painting, so he also walked over to take a look. After seeing it, he couldn't look away: "Madam, you are painting. That’s great!”

The two looked at the painting for a long time before finally putting it away and chatting aside.

"When I first came back, I saw Mr. Feng crying outside Moxiangju. I don't know what kind of injustice he suffered. He was crying very sadly." Jingzhe said.

Guyu curled his lips and said: "The two young masters in our mansion were both raised by the old lady as if they were golden pimples. Who in this mansion dares to risk his life to provoke them?"

In the past, Jiang Fuyue met them in the backyard and often took the initiative to say hello to them, but they always turned a blind eye.

They didn't even pay attention to Jiang Fuyue, the head matron of the house. Who in this house would dare to suffer them?

Jingzhe shook his head and said: "Don't forget, now there is an enlightenment gentleman in the house!" After a pause, Jingzhe said again: "I went to inquire specifically. The maids in Moxiangju said that Li Juren She has a bad temper and will scold people if she doesn't get her way. When teaching the two young masters, they can often hear scolding in the room, so..."

Hearing this, Gu Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "So it seems that one thing is really destroying another thing? I didn't expect that these two young masters were actually pressed on their heads by Li Juren, tut tut tut..."

Jiang Fuyue frowned slightly.

Gu Liao and Gu Feng are not the type to suffer from boredom. They are afraid that they will have troubles soon, and the old lady will have to ask her to deal with this mess.

Thinking of this, Jiang Fuyue irritably slapped the book in her hand on the table.

-

Just as Jiang Fuyue thought, just a few days after Ansheng's birthday, Gu Liao and Gu Feng started to quarrel, and even went directly to the old lady.

It happened that on this day, Sun Jingke came.

At that time, the two were playing chess. Mother Liu who was beside the old lady hurried over and said that the old lady had something important to ask Jiang Fuyue to come over.

Sun Jingke, who was almost scratching his hair and not thinking about his next move, suddenly raised his head, and two gleams of light burst out from his eyes.

God help her!
Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Fuyue had already said, "Unfortunately, the young lady from Duke Jin's residence is here today. I really can't get around here, so please forgive me, mother-in-law."

Hearing this, Mother Liu noticed that the woman sitting opposite Jiang Fuyue had an extraordinary bearing. When she heard that she was actually the young lady of Duke Jin's palace, she was immediately in awe.

Mother Liu hesitated for a long time, then said: "Madam, something big has happened in the house. Madam is old and I'm afraid she won't be able to suppress it. Madam, you have to personally come forward to deal with this matter!"

"Mother Liu was joking. My mother-in-law is in her prime and in good health. She is also the most noble elder in the prince's mansion. What big thing can't she handle?" Jiang Fuyue said with a smile, "If even mother-in-law If you can’t suppress it, I can’t even do it, why don’t you ask the Marquis to come back and deal with it yourself?”

It was rare that Jiang Fuyue left no room for what she said, making it clear that she was determined not to care.

After she finished speaking, Mrs. Liu opened her mouth and closed it again. She repeated this several times, but she couldn't say a word.

Seeing that Liu's mother refused to leave, Jiang Fuyue was not in a hurry.

That's what she said. Mother Liu will definitely leave, it's just a matter of sooner or later.

Sun Jingke stared bitterly at the chessboard in front of him, then suddenly looked up at Mother Liu who still refused to leave.

She raised her hand and swept the chess pieces on the chessboard to the ground, and said angrily: "You didn't see me and your wife playing chess here. How can your palace survive without your wife? You don't have any eyesight. Get down quickly! Don’t let me see you again!”

Seeing the angry young lady of the palace, Liu's mother was frightened and trembled. She didn't dare to say another word, and quickly turned around and left with quick little steps.

As soon as Liu's mother left, Gu Yu asked someone to close the courtyard door.

Jiang Fuyue glanced at her, with a smile that couldn't be hidden in her eyes: "You are quite clever."

Sun Jingke breathed a sigh of relief and raised his eyebrows at her proudly.
